Day Forty Six

by on Dec.01, 2009, under project 365

Something went wrong today. I stopped by the Low Elevation Greenbelt Overpass (known in the area as L.E.G.O.) and this special team was there. Some rescue went on, there was a helicopter and some other type of experimental aircraft, an Octan bottle and a bunch of people trying to keep everything under control. We were advised to keep distance and clear the area quickly. I only had time to grab my telephoto lens and shoot this image. Obviously there was some kind of accident or something went wrong. One can never be too careful around these things.

Day Forty

Today I wasn’t planning to get this shot. I got called to do this on the spot and I kinda had to make it work with one light. Everything, besides the cake, was improvised. I’m glad it turned out the way it did. And the cake was good. Mmm, mmm,… Happy birthday, Timi!

Happy Be-Day, Timi!

Strobist info: 580 EX into umbrella, CR at 1/2 via PW. Slow shutter for small tungsten fill. That’s why you can see the little orange spot in the middle. I usually don’t tweak with the images, cause there’s just so dang many, so pretty much what you see is straight from camera. I’ll let you know when I tweak, that’s if it’s not obvious. Don’t forget to grab the RSS and share on Facebook, Twitter, and what have you,… right below.
